Same "WOW" experience. I recently installed a Touch. My audio files
(flac and wav) are on a ReadyNas Ultra, running SBS 7.5.3, on a
dedicated network, ethernet connected to the Touch, itself connected by
SPDIF to my audio system. My laptop is thus not needed, I use the Touch
like i use a CD player. (I use the laptop only to transfer ripped CD
files to the NAS). To my ear, the sound is VERY good, at least as good
than from CDs played from my CD player (Oppo 83 SE).
